Small Hands |
Miss you terribly already |
Miss the space between your eyelids |
Where I’d stare through awkward sentences |
And void through awkward silence |
Miss your teeth when they chatter |
When we smoked out in my garden |
When we couldn’t sleep for all the heat |
Soft talk began to harden |
Miss your small hands in the palm of mine |
The fact they’re good at making |
Miss you sitting up incessantly |
And the fact you’re always waking in the night |
The night |
And I |
I hope for your life |
You forget about mine |
Forget about mine |
Miss your teeth dug in my shoulder |
As we rolled in early morning |
Miss your arm dying beneath me |
As I lay there, simply yawning |
Please forget me, you were right dear |
I am cold and self-involved |
And though I’ll miss you, recent lover |
I am weak and therefore fold |
Get distracted by my music |
Think of nothing else but art |
I’ll write my loneliness in poems |
If I can just think how to start |
Dot my I’s with eyebrow pencils |
Close my eyelids, hide my eyes |
I’ll be idle in my ideals |
Think of nothing else but I |
I, I |
And I |
And I |
I hope for your life |
You can forget about mine |
Just forget about mine |
Oh, mine |
Mine |
